Jon Azpiazu Lozano

Computer Engineering graduate from the University of the Basque Country - Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea, UPV/EHU (2003), and holder of a Diploma of Advanced Studies (DEA) in the program "Computer Engineering: Communications, Control and Artificial Intelligence" from the same university in 2005. In 2005, he joined Fatronik (later Tecnalia) as a researcher, initially participating in projects related to Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. His research later focused on Computer Vision, leading the Computer Vision line within the field of robotics.

In 2013, he joined SINTEF, the largest research center in Scandinavia, as a scientific researcher. During this period, he participated in and led various research projects related to robotics and computer vision, including both applied research projects (mainly concepts involving the use of robotics in the oil & gas industry) and fundamental research projects, such as one on semantic environment perception for snake robots.

In 2017, he returned to Tecnalia’s robotics group, where he led two European projects in this field. Since 2019, he has combined his research activity with teaching robotics courses in the Dual Master's Degree in Digital Manufacturing organized by the IMH School of Engineering and UPV/EHU.
